An automobile weighing 1.19 x 104 N has weight equally distributed over its wheels. The weight of the car causes each tire to be slightly flattened on the bottom so that there is a surface area in contact with the road. The gauge pressure of the air in the tire is 1.90 x 105 Pa (27.55 lb/in2). Find the area of contact, assuming that the only forces on the section of tire in contact with the road are the air pressure and the normal force exerted by the surface of the road.
